------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ----------------------------

Okay, I did that successfully.  Thanks  :-).  I'm suspecting that this has 
something to do with the GNU/non-GNU separation, if that helps any...

The use of SSL seems less useful if a token that allows accounts to be captured 
is sent plain-text.

[WORKAROUND]
Please, do not share your password.

Other persons reported this problem but I cannot reproduce it easily. And with 
the development version, no problem was reported.

The current workaround is to use the lost password process. Not logged in, you 
can use that tool and no problem has been reported with it.

Yeah, I'm sure.  I've tried it six times now, once in Mozilla.  It always just 
shows me the password changing field again.

This happens whether or not I enter the correct password.  I'll happily give 
you my password by mail so you can fiddle with it.

Apparently, there is a problem with the feedback message when you mistype your 
original password.

Are you sure that you typed everything right?
